La Tore 1:20 scale Portrait Bust Limited Edition- Adult T. rex
"La Tore", venerable female adult T. rex, and mother of the juvenile T. rex twins "Geraldina" and Jagger".
Limited to 20 pieces.
Ancient Era Artistry portrait busts are a great way to get your collection off of the crowded shelves and on into a space that provides for the display that the artwork deserves.
Do you have a beautiful collection bursting off every surface in your house or collection room? Unfortunately, there is only so much space! Well, now you can climb the walls with the best part of any dinosaur model... the head, face, and bust. These portrait busts come straight from the same artwork that makes up the full version of each animal, so the identities of each character from the Ancient Era Cosmos are intact.
The unique wall mount system is a great, innovative feature of Ancient Era Artistry busts. We have devised a way to offer a sturdy mount that stays permanently in place. However, anytime you want to clean, repaint, or hand the bust to a friend to get a closer look, you can slide the model off of the fixed wall mount. Then, slide it back on when you're done, and it will lock in place precisely as it had been mounted originally.

ANCIENT ERA ARTISTRY
RETURN AND REFUND POLICY
Matt Ramieri sculpts all of the ANCIENT ERA ARTISTRY modern paleoart model kits. Ramieri rigorously researches every species he sculpts and makes it his mission to make each character as scientifically viable as possible. He calls his work "Scientifically Possible."
Matt includes all the known facts and most up-to-date scientific data to breathe life into the fauna of pre-history. Alternately, Ramieri believes that each character should have a personality... an identity that reflects everything from the brutal and tumultuous lives these creatures were forced to live to the freedom and fancy of young beasts at play. Matt means to fill in the gaps between the pages of scientific journals with this philosophical point of view, and he drives the path of speculation with the creative freedom of a character designer.
Each model produced by Ancient Era Artistry is 3d print prototyped by LFS (low force stereolithography), high-resolution resin printing technology. Matt insists on the highest resolution so that his countless hours toiling over the most delicate details can be realized in the end product. The 3d printing process not only yields the tiny details not obtainable with traditional clay but also allows for delicate, intricate parts that would not survive the molding and casting process. Super fine details like tiny teeth and claws must be fattened up to survive the molding process and make prominent enough voids for cast liquid resin to fill. This makes for "cartoon" almost costume versions of what would have otherwise been beautiful and detailed pieces.
So, At Ancient Era Artistry, all of these fine details are 3d printed. we do reduce costs by molding and casting some parts of some of the models. We do this if the detail in the part is easily retained through the molding and casting process, and we separate, remove, and print details that won't cast easily. We do not use this process to compromise the finer points; we only do it to reduce cost where it would not affect the beauty and complexity of the model kit.
